WHAT IS THE VETERAN TREATMENT PROGRAM?
Based on the successful Drug Court model, the Veterans Treatment Court will serve veterans struggling with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), substance use disorders, mental health, and/or co-occurring disorders. The long-term goal of this problem-solving court is to restore the veteran's quality of life and reduce conflicts that might lead to additional incarceration events. This goal will be accomplished by providing the veteran with treatment and supportive services.

Veterans
You are being given an opportunity to participate in the Webb County Veterans Treatment program (“VTP”). This program represents a fresh and innovative approach to diverting Veterans from incarceration into treatment. The core mission of VTP is an immediate and intensive intervention and treatment after an arrest. VTP relies on the cooperation and collaboration between the criminal justice system, the Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”), community treatment agencies, and many more entities available to all veterans and of course, YOU. This VTP team will collectively develop a plan to help you gain and maintain stability, improve your mental health, and assist you in achieving sobriety and successfully reentering society as a productive individual. We are here to answer questions, address concerns and provide overall information about the Program. As a participant, you will be expected to follow the instructions given in VTP by the Judge and comply with the treatment plan developed for you by your treatment team. VTP will detail what is expected of you as a VTP participant and review general program information. All participants are required to read and abide by all rules and procedures and are encouraged to share this information with family and friends.
